Our Northern friends are making des-
perate attempts to make believe that
spring has come. The annual trouble of
the baseball season has come and the
more enthusiastic lovers of the game
shiver in overcoats while they watch
numbed players fumbling with hot
balls which do not warm but sting We
are sorry for our late visitors who hur-
ried away into the later winter Just as
the magnolia blooms were beginning to
appear like great balls of ivory among
the glossy green leaves and the hooking
birds We're coming into song But they
will know better next time and will not
leave us just as Florida is ready to show
them what she can do in the way of
climate. We shall receive them next
winter in spirit of forgiveness, and
overlook their readiness to leave us on
the bare assertion of the almanac that
spring has come in the North.

4 Call for Plea.


When the trainers of the Interstate
Commerce Law put the word Plea in the
section that reads that all railroad lines
must expose their freight and passenger
tariffs at each station of their road. and
the same To be printed in that style of
type. they did not take into consideration
the great OUTLAY this would involve on
the railroad companies. To revise the
present tariffs to conform to the new
law is an herculean task of itself. and
requires extra clerical force. but
to change the type, created conster-
nation in the ranks of the freight and
passenger agents. The present tariff
sheets are set up in nonpariel type, 50,
at one fell swoop all goes by the board
and an entire change must be had. The
standing nonpariel tables are smashed,
so to speak. and it is in getting new ones
in the type required by law that makes
the labor so great and the expense 81
large. Printing offices do not carry
much large type, while the type foun-
dries have but little in stock. the de
mand being limited. Now. with the
new order of things each printing
office Will require thousands and thous-
ands of pounds of plea type. All the
foundries of the country are now work
ing night and day getting out plea type
to the neglect of all others. The officials
of the Missouri Pacific Railroad Com
pany estimate their printing bill for this
particular job Will cost about 500. 900.
At present only the passenger tariffs are
in the hands of the printers. many of
wfdch will not be ready for delivery in
weeks. notwithstanding the fact all
the printing offices of any pre-
tension i'm the leading cities of
the United States are pushed to their
utmost. 1T Is almost certain that the gran
ger will not find the printed tariffs or
schedules hanging conveniently from a
hook at the station he ships from even
by the middle of July. This shows the
labor, trouble and expense involved on

English Red Tame.

A singular instance of red tapism in the
management of the jsils has just occurred
at Warwick. A few days ago two young
women Of the gypsy fraternity, with
babies In their arms, were committed for
trial by the Rugby magistrate. Unable
to obtain bail. they were dispatched to
Warwick in charge Of an officer. On their
arrival ct the jail ct 4 P. NJ. the Chief
Warder received the woman but told the
officer he must take the children back to
Rugby, because they were over nine
months old, their ages being ten and
eleven months respectively, and they
were not included 10 the warrants. The
officer replied that the babies had COM
mitted no offense, and declined to comply
with the order unless he could take the
women back 10 we'll. SO as to get the COM
mitments reotiied IL there was anything
wrong. The officer, however was not al.
lowed to leave the jail or to communi.
cate with his Superintendent until the ar
rival Of the Governor at $50 O'Clock, when
he was permitted 10 take the women to
Rugby, where they arrived at midnight.
The following morning they we're asked il
they would allow their children to 20 to
the workhouse, but they refused, and the
only way out OF the difficulty was to
liberate them on their own bail to appear
at the assizes.-London Standard.

going to respectable places TO spend an
hour they make Q break for dives, and
get robbed and arrested. and whine about
their losses and respectability. and blame
